Teague tried the test himself on a recent episode of his “Club 520” podcast. His run didn’t start out so well, with former teammates PJ Tucker, Georges Niang, and Josh Okogie all ignoring his calls. But Teague eventually got Niang to pick up on the second try and also received a callback from John Lucas III. The real test came when Teague, who played on the Celtics in the 2020-21 season, gave Tatum a call. Tatum picked up after just a few rings. “Oh, we lit! I was the better teammate!” Teague joked after his brief conversation with Tatum.
